oh i could give a straight up goddamn
i could give you four or five of them
i got a thousand in my bank account
break it open let the goddamns walk out

all my traumas hinge upon
some convoluted axiom
of the cube of x plus y
equals itself divided by now

where have you gone?

i been to south of highland falls before
i am a waiter in a furniture store
i m in demand and i m unsure why
i get to roll with the flyest of the fly

all my limbs are sticks and lines
my head s a point upon my spine, i can t
get no quadrilateral
i can t say half empty or half full now

and slapping at the angles of the shape you re
in
left sleeve in velvet, right sleeve in sharkskin
all your laughs snapping like a dog bark
left here looking for girls that glow in the dark
